Title: Can you limit shoppers to a certain set of zip codes?
Post by: AliveMedia on January 15, 2014, 17:39:43 PM
Hi everyone,

I have a client that has a virtuemart store.  They are are wanting to limit shoppers with only a certain set of zip codes within a state in the U.S.  So in other words, a shopper could only purchase if their shipping/delivery address is within the those zip codes.  It's for a local delivery service.  Anyone could order (billing) but the shipping would be limited.  Is there a setting or extension that can accomplish this in VM?

Thanks,
AJ

 You could set up the delivery plugin to only allow delivery to certain zips, others would be unable to complete the purchase - and may get a bit pissed if this is not properly explained on the site.   ;)

Have a look at http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=112127.0

Excellent!  Thank you for pointing me towards that.

And yes, we had a lengthy discussion about making sure that was visibly and boldly clear to everyone on a number of places.  ;)
